your soil looks dry as balls, next time try germinating, then planting......
-C
they were germinated mate.in wet tissue with water and superthrive,on a heating mat kept at 22 degrees.11 out of twelve germinated.i was allways told to not soak the soil too much or you will drown the roots..is this wrong?have i been sabataged
dont you think it would be a little hard to soak some roots that arent there?Quote:

thanks king k,your advice is noted.just sprayed the soil alot more than i normally would have..i have a heated propagator..should i use it for the seedlings..fuck my friend,he is too competative for me..thats why im here ..any advice is welcome..
i assume when you say spray that you are using a water bottle and spraying the top of the soil? i want to give the soil a good soaking for the first time. if you have sufficient pots, meaning adequate holes to drain with, then you will not "drown" your plant. but back on the spray bottle, lose it. i have seen way too many people in there logs burn their plants because they were water bottle feeding them.
and about the propagator, im not sure. hopefully someone more experienced will pop in and help you.
best of luck with the endeveurs(sp?)
loose the bottle..got ya...cheers king. provement in the seeds today two more are poking there heads through.. so thanks.. got some new seeds as a present from a mate who was in the dam over the week end ...they are sprayed different colours.two of each and ten seeds...ever seen them...i think they might be a tourist gimmick..he is a bit slow from toking..
colored seeds? never heard of that one. what colors are they, throw some pics up of themQuote:

well im finally starting some progress,followed the advice given by rusty and upped the p.h to 6.5..i was finding it hard to control the temps and this was causing the soil to dry out too quick..i really fuck ed them up over the first week but things are movinga bit now. 3(2 V+ 1 PP) are thriving,4 (3 VOODOO+1 brainstorm)are above ground and 4 more are ready to come through over the next few days..hopefully... ill post some more pics as they grow..going to use l.s.t as my space is gonna be fairly cramped with them..
looking good man

what kind of soil are you using?
i had been using bio bizz all-mix on previous grows but i found it wasnt very good at absorbing water.it just seemed to stay on the top layer,so i have gone back to good old irish peat moss with 1/4 perlite and 1/4 vermiculite..its cheaper and seems to hold water better..
yes, too wet in germinating causes problems. Even in paper towels they are better off if the towels are just damp, not dripping wet. In soil the root and or the stem can rot very easily. It's good to have the top of the soil get a little dry between waterings. Using perlite, coco or peat moss to mulch the top layer works well. I grew some off brand Neville's Haze (it was good weed but not correct. I have a package of Mister Nice Seeds' Neville's Haze for this Fall's indoor grow.
Hey, Good luck, Bub!
cheers lads for the feedback..,...sounds like you will be well toasted this winter shovlehandle.. i have a few of them nevilles haze seeds,but im a bit warey of growing them.. i watched a video of them growing it online and it grew to 7 foot and took 14 weeks to flower...but the smoke is supposed to be mind bending shit..
but back to the growlog...i left them in the care of my flatmate for a morning..and he FUCKED UP.. he was dying from drink this morning and he went up to see to them and knocked 4 over.. i got home to a big mess..him on his knees sifting through the soil on the floor.. i managed to get two of them back in and i think they might be ok..but two are fucked..but its not too bad as it was the ones that were only starting to pop through..any way im down to nine potentials...(IM NEVER GOING TO MASS AGAIN ON A SUNDAY MORNING)
P.S alcohol and weed dont mix ,thats why im dry
